"Oh, nasira ba ang blender ng shake shack at natagalan ka don?" Salubong ni Kahlia sakin pagkatapos ng nakakaigting na usapan namin ni Kade.
I still feel weird after all of it. What does he mean na paninindigan niya ako?
Napabuntong hininga nalang ako. I'm sure he doesn't really mean it right? Sinasabi niya lang yon kasi wala pa, hindi pa niya nakuha yung gusto niya. Kasi ganon naman sila diba? Magbibitaw ng salita, di naman tutuparin.
"Huy!" Natigilan ako sa sigaw ni Kahlia.
Stop thinking about him Gabbie. Masasaktan ka lang, isa pa, crush pa lang naman diba?
"Earth to Isla Gabrielle!" Sigaw ulit ni Kahlia.. kunot na noo ko siyang nilingon.
"Ay salamat! Buhay ka pa pala, akala ko ano nang nangyari sayo! Tara! Tayo na yung maglalaro." Pag-aaya niya.
Muntik ko nang makalimutan yung rason kung bakit kami nandito, but I was no longer in the mood. I turned to Kahlia,
"Kahls, I'm not feeling well. Pwede ikaw nalang?" Sabi ko at agad na naningkit ang mga mata niya.
She's not going to take my excuse for sure. Knowing how hawk-like her senses are, she knows something's off.
Eh meron naman talaga, I just.. it's complicated. I'm making it complicated.
"Bakit? May nangyari ba sayo?" Usisa niya. There wasn't a slight hint of concern in her tone. She knows alright.
I just heaved a heavy sigh. It's weird, it's her brother. He's my problem.
I mean, what happens if magpapahila ako sa mga emosyon ko? What happens if gusto kong maniwala kay Kade? What if.. what if I end up falling for him?
Paninindigan niya ako. Panigurado ay pinanindigan din niya si Adelaide. At kung gagawin ko ulit yung ginawa sa kaniya ni Adelaide, anong pinagkaiba ko sa kaniya? How can I choose my emotions without having to risk any relationships involved?
How can I choose to love, kung palagi akong hinahabol ng sakit?
"Isla!" Naiinis na sigaw ni Kahlia. She was looking at me, her hands crossed against her chest. She was pissed, and I'm spacing off too much again! Dahil 'to sa Madrigal na yon!
"Okay, okay. Fine I'm just going to play." Sabi ko nalang dahil hindi ko pa kaya.
They might get their hopes up for me and Kade. Ayokong masira ang tiwala nila sakin. I'm too scared to fall.
"Finally! Ang tagal niyo kasi oh! Tingnan niyo't nanatalo na ang team ninyo. Bilisan niyo na nga diyan!" Sigaw ni Zave kaya napairap si Kahlia.
"It's not my fault someone's out of their mind here." Inis na sabi niya, pertaining to me. I just looked at her and sighed.
"You're so salty Kahls. C'mon!" Sabi ko, habang unti-unting iniipon ang lakas loob para lang sa game nato.
Bakit ba kasi ako kinakabahan? Ah, maybe it's because I haven't played since high school? Yes.
I know a little bit of volleyball- since I played during my senior year for our school team but sports isn't necessarily my forte anymore. Which is why I consider myself as an amateur, if not a noob at the game.
"Shut up Gabbie." She said kaya natawa nalang ako. We both went and positioned ourselves, and by the time I got to my position, I was already drenched in sweat.
What is it? Like 35 degrees? Gah!
Bago pumito si Xavier ay nakita kong magkatabi silang nakatayo ni Kade. That made my heart beat frantically, and made me sweat even more.
